A Revision is when alterations are made to established Canon, Backstory and greater lore that was not the believed upon facts at the time the information was previously established. While this is, strictly speaking, still a Retcon, the difference between this and how people typically use that word is that the new details don't really contradict what came before, at least from a factual point of view. It may still contradict the spirit of the earlier installment.
This pans out usually because the assumed information was Shrouded in Myth or told by an Unreliable Narrator, comments that are taken as literally as possible may be better understood metaphorically or a playful use of Exact Words.
Writing by the Seat of Your Pants may be part of the reason this happens, nothing was firmly established because the writers didn't know anything beyond that episode and then they had to decipher unknown or non-existent hints to come up with a plausible resolution. The introduction of a Cousin Oliver or Long-Lost Uncle Aesop is often a Revision, while Chuck Cunningham Syndrome is often a Rewrite.
Compare and contrast with Series Continuity Error, Broad Strokes, Soft Reboot. See also Pseudo-Canonical Fic and Remember the New Guy?.

At first, Goku's monkey tail, super-strength, Great Ape form, and overall durability lacked any specific origin, they were just part of being a Monkey King Lite. The reveal that he belongs to a race of monkey-tailed alien mercenaries who conquer planets didn't happen until Dragon Ball Z, though it was foreshadowed in the previous arc.

A Story Within a Story version of this happens in Gregory Frost's Shadowbridge. The puppeteer's assistant Soter explains to his previous employer's daughter Leodora that there are only a small number of original stories in their world but many variations. He then gives the example of The Druid's Egg, which at it's basis has a thief fall in love with a princesss, but he's interfered with by an evil wizard that's also courting her. In disguise as a royal chancellor, the wizard gives the thief the dangerous task of finding the Druid's egg as a prerequisite for marrying the princess. Soter says that Leodora's father Bardsham did a famous revision. He added a Rape as Drama element to the story where none was mentioned before - the disguised wizard rapes the princess and Bardsham goes as far as to make an anatomically correct princess puppet with a tear-away dress. Leodora adds her own variation on her father's take, the princess leaves in self-imposed exile with her thief, whereas the other versions has the king give the thief wealth and lands.

Season Eight reveals that after Dark Willow flayed Warren alive, Amy saved him, using her magic to keep him "alive" despite his lack of skin; Word of God is that the First Evil was able to assume Warren's form because he was technically dead for a few moments before Amy's magic kicked in. It also reveals that the events of "The Killer in Me", where Amy transformed her into Warren with a spell, was in fact done on Warren's orders for revenge, rather than simple jealousy that Willow was now more powerful than Amy.

The ROM hack Sonic 3 Complete features a slightly Revised Ending in light of this — when you play the original Sonic 3 through this hack, when the screen flashes white during the ending, the Death Egg doesn't disappear and continues to fall in the background (the only thing flash serves to do is to remove the Heads-Up Display, as it did in the unaltered Sonic 3). There's also a "To Be Continued" screen added after the credits depicting the Death Egg crashing into the volcano (as seen in the title screen of Sonic & Knuckles).

The player character is an Alpha Series Big Daddy (the first Alpha Series), Super Prototypes that were made before the other Big Daddies. Why does the player character in the first game never encounter them? They're all dead or insane from losing their Little Sisters, which is why the weaker Big Daddy models were used instead, because they don't have such a strong attachment.

The game expands upon how Kain was able to kill William the Just and rewrite history despite making it clear in this game that history is supposed to be immutable. As it turns out, Moebius ensured that both Kain and William were armed with different incarnations of the Soul Reaver, which triggered a temporal distortion allowing for history's alteration.

comment
In the Star Wars series:
The Empire Strikes Back reveals that Vader is Luke's father, after Obi-Wan talked of Vader and his father as two different people in A New Hope. Sources differ on how concrete the idea was from the beginning, it is known early drafts of the script had Anakin Skywalker as a Spirit Advisor to Luke before facing Vader and even a false line had Vader say "Obi-Wan killed your father." The twist still fundamentally works because Luke had no reason to think otherwise, while other lines about his father can be viewed in a different light with different context. Return of the Jedi features a tough conversation where Obi-Wan explains his statement was Metaphorically True.
Rogue One greatly expands on the backstory of Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope, focusing on the group of rebels who recovered the Death Star plans.
The film explains the nature of the Death Star's infamous weak point: it wasn't an oversight; it was deliberately incorporated into the plans by Galen Erso, an engineer with anti-Imperial sentiments. Erso is also the one who informed the Rebels of the existence of the flaw and the plans to begin with.
A somewhat minor one comes from Leia's cover of using a "diplomatic mission." Her ship was actually present at the Battle of Scarif, fleeing it directly, and Vader was standing right there watching as it left. No wonder Vader wasn't impressed.
One of the big twists in The Last Jedi is that Rey's parents were nobodies who sold Rey off and never looked back. The Rise of Skywalker reveals that Rey's parents deliberately became nobodies and sold Rey off to protect her from her very, very dangerous paternal grandfather, Sheev Palpatine.

Kill All Humans
 Revision / int_8b1a664
comment
It was initially stated in-universe that Goku was sent to Earth to wipe out humanity so Frieza's empire could sell the planet, but forgot that mission when he fell down a ravine and hit his head. In the short story Dragon Ball Minus, released in 2013, it's revealed that Goku's parents actually sent him away to save him from Frieza's impending genocide of the Saiyans. It doesn't contradict anything within the story. Raditz was the only one who actually said that Goku was sent to Earth to kill the humans, and he could've easily misinterpreted why Goku was sent out, since Saiyans regularly sent their children out to conquer worlds anyway; the only ones who know the truth, Bardock and Gine, are long dead.

The quirky and good natured inventor Velika was revealed to be an evil, mass murdering Great Being in disguise as a mere Matoran 5 years after his introduction, not in the official story but via Farshtey's correspondance with fans. He was also apparently one of the main instigators of the story, having tinkered with the Matoran race's programming to let them become sentient ages ago.

All-Powerful Bystander
 Revision / int_adb98918
comment
The Time Lords went through this twice. From "The War Games" onwards they were depicted as All Powerful Bystanders, with limitless power over the universe but choosing not to interfere in the affairs of lesser species. "The Deadly Assassin" onward showed that this was merely an image they like to project, as in reality Time Lord society is immensely corrupt and stagnant, the people themselves content to sit back in luxury while the universe goes on without them, even forgetting much of their own history. The Doctor Who Expanded Universe and "The End of Time" showed that this was a deliberate restraint their ancestors had put on themselves, as when Time Lords start messing with the universe they become anything from Evil Overlords to full-blown Omnicidal Maniacs; the Doctor is a very, very rare exception.

One background character was originally drawn with a ridiculous number of pockets on his jacket, which Dan Shive only did because he thought it would look funny and he had no plans to develop the character. Later, when Dan choose the character to play a larger role in the story, it was revealed that the character, Sam, is trans and in a bit of accidental Fridge Brilliance and Foreshadowing, wearing a jacket with a large number of bulging pockets was to help disguise the fact he had a female figure.

comment
It also makes some solid origins for Diana too, showing the path she takes in becoming an ICA Handler (going after the company that killed her parents primarily). This does lead to a Retcon where Emma, her sister, is never mentioned; as well as killing both parents and her brother, instead of just her father. That said, this information originally came from a video advertising Hitman: Absolution; and is widely believed to be in a form of Continuity Snarl in the first place as the recent games scarcely reference its events.

Word of God
 Revision / int_cc4b45f6
comment
On a related note, Babidi's relation to Bibidi was also changed. Originally he was simply referred to as Bibidi's "son" with no further elaboration. Once again via Word of God it was revealed that Bibidi had the power to split himself into copies called "doppelgangers". While Babidi referring to Bibidi as his father isn't technically untrue in this context, they are also the same person. (Then again, Piccolo is much the same.) In reference to the above, it's still quite possible that despite being Bibidi, Babidi's memories may have been very fragmented due to the abrupt nature of Bibidi's death. He could have easily "forgotten" that Buu wasn't truly his creation.

The IDW Transformers comics first discussed the issue of gender in the Transformers in the controversial Spotlight: Arcee. In this, the Transformers are naturally genderless (although using male pronouns) and Arcee is artificially (and against her will) made into the first female. A number of years later, multiple stories revised this, mainly saying that Arcee felt she was born in the wrong body and consented to the operation, and only went berserk due to the lack of aftercare she was given. Ultimately, these revisions expanded the world rather than directly invalidate anything previously said. So everything the characters state in Spotlight: Arcee was correct as far as those characters knew, but was incorrect now that the full history has been revealed.
The Transformers: Windblade introduced Caminus and the other lost colonies. These were colonies of Cybertronians who left so far in the ancient past that in the time since gender "arose" in the course of evolution/adaptation.
The Transformers: Robots in Disguise further revises this by stating that female Cybertronians did in fact exist in the very, very distant past (meaning only a handful of currently-living Cybertronians would even know of them, let alone have met one). Many "non-standard" Cybertronian types (beasts, combiners, etc) are said to have "been lost" over the years of war between the ancient tribes.

The first game implies that Sora's Keyblade is one-of-a-kind, and it's only at the end of the game when Mickey pulls out his own Keyblade he retrieved from the Realm of Darkness. Later games introduce other keyblade wielders, but the prequel Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep explains that the Keyblade is actually a power that can be bestowed upon others by current keyblade wielders, and while it's rarer in the present day, there used to be thousands of Keyblade wielders that fought against each other in a Keyblade War.
